A:
Dennis -
Acceleration is just a fancy word for 'changing speed' (or more
accurately 'changing velocity'). For instance, if you push down on the
accelerator in your car, you will increase the car's speed. The harder
you push the acclerator, the faster you will speed up and the more
accleration you will have.
